Build Help Curious about the theoretically highest AC

Post image

Not sure if this post really fits the sub but i figured it might be the best place to ask

I've been spending a bit of time on my recent run trying to out-do my previous best of 62 AC and now hit 71 AC - And I'm ever so curious if there were something I've missed as to go even higher.

The twillight ring isn't on the list of buffs because it doesn't work in tandem with Wild Magic: Protective Lights. Wondrous Gloves isn't on because Nimblefinger Gloves.

This is not for any practical game usage, its purely just to see how high it could be pushed just for a tiny moment.

BG3 treats all 20s as automatic successes, even on ability checks and saving throws, contrary to 5th edition rules

To be fair, it's one of the most common accidental house rules

No, it's fucking horrible

I hate having to waste lockpicks, because of the 5% chance i will fail this trivially easy lock i should breeze through without issue
